Know Before You Go: October Mobility Updates Across Broward

There’s a lot happening on Broward’s transportation network this month. In Hollywood, the Hollywood Boulevard railroad crossing at Dixie Highway/21st Avenue reopens today, October 5, at 6 p.m. Also, in Hollywood, the Sherman Street Bridge closure remains in effect through December 30. Work near A1A and Sheridan Street is also bringing lane shifts and closures as resilience and stormwater improvements move forward.

In Fort Lauderdale, roadway improvements continue along NW 15th Avenue, including raised intersections, wider sidewalks, drainage improvements and new crosswalks. Work at Broward Boulevard and SE 15th Avenue is adding a dual left turn lane and signal modifications to improve intersection operations.

Elsewhere around the county, improvements are underway along Sheridan Street at Florida’s Turnpike, NE 26th Street in Wilton Manors, and Douglas Road/Pine Island Road in Pembroke Pines and Cooper City, with projects ranging from bridge and roadway work to new sidewalks and ADA improvements.

With construction activity happening throughout Broward, travelers are encouraged to plan ahead, watch for changing traffic patterns, and allow extra time when traveling through active work zones.
